Summary

Description
English: The quarries at Saksenvik are concentrated in four main clusters over a total distance of nearly 2.5 kilometres, with the south end of the quarry zone lying in the small settlement of Saksenvik, close to sea level, and the north end near the hilltop of Vassliheia at 500 m.a.s.l. The main quarries are refereed to as Kalvgarden (south), Saksenvikelva, Hestgarden/Heimersurpan and Vassliheia (north) All quarries in the Saksenvik area show evidence of contemporaneous slab splitting and direct carving, mostly for hand querns but also for water millstones.
